For nearly five decades, Cardwell Family Restaurants has been more than just a group of McDonald’s locations — we’re a family business rooted in Midwest values.
From our first restaurant in Columbus, Ohio, to our growing network across the region, our mission has remained the same: to serve good food, create opportunity, and strengthen the communities we call home.
At the heart of everything we do are the values that guide us — family, integrity, community service, accountability, excellence, and respect.
These aren’t just words on a wall; they’re the foundation of every meal we serve and every partnership we build.
What began as a single restaurant opened by the Cardwell family in 1974 has grown into a network of six locations across Ohio, Indiana, and Michigan.
Along the way, we’ve built a team that shares our passion for hospitality, our dedication to people, and our belief that small acts of care can make a big difference.
Behind every Cardwell Family Restaurant is a team of dedicated leaders who believe in doing things the right way — with care, consistency, and heart. Our leadership team brings together decades of experience in hospitality, operations, and community service, all focused on supporting our people and the neighborhoods we serve.
Whether you’re reaching out about catering, career opportunities, or community events, our team is here to help. Send us a message and we’ll respond as quickly as possible.
